FIRST ANNIVERSARY.
THE PRESIDENT AND WIPE CELEBRATE THE
RETURN OP THEIR WEDDING DAY
With Democratic Sympicity-HOw 1t Was Observed
in the Wilderness About Saranac Lake
Governor Hill Making Crest Prspara-
tons for the Albany Reception.

SARANAC INN, n. Y, June 2.-The an
niversary of the wedding day of the Presi-
dent and Mrs. Cleveland dawned beauti-
fully at Saranac Inn.
At sunrise there WAS not a breath of air
stirring, and the surface of the lake re-
llected every tree, hill, mountain range and
cloud.
There was promise of a fair and very
warm day, but at o'clock, when the cot
tage party came over TO the hotel for
breakfast, breeze had sprung up from the
west and the white caps were running
across the bay Just off Prospect Point.
When Mrs Cleveland sat down to break
fast she found a little cluster of four-leaf
clover at her place. She and the President
were heartily congratulated upon the ami
yerSary and were wished all manner of
happiness and good luck.
At 10 O'Clock, after smearing their faces
literally with fly ointment, the President,
Mrs. Cleveland and Dave Cronk went off
in one boat, Col and Mrs. Lamont and
McCaffrey in another, and Doctor and Mrs.
Rosman in third, to spend the day at
Hollis pond, about three miles distant.
They took luncheon, and unless the flies
and mosquitoes prove too annoying will re-
main all day. When they return the cot
tage of the President will probably be dec
Grated in simple manner TO recall to its
occupants a memory of the ceremony that
took place in the Blue Room of the White
House Just year ago.

A Fierce Denunciatlon.

LONDON, June John Brights letter,
read at the Liberal Unionist mass meeting
AZ Bfrmiuvham, last night, il a long and
fierce denunciation of the Gladstonian pol,
icy, which in Great Britain, he says, is re-
iected by majority Of two 10 one. The
letter continues:
"Mr Gladstone, having turned his own
coat, is impatient at the Liberals for refus
ing TO do likewise. History never before
produced such humiliation. Crowds OF
enthusiastic non-comlormists supported
Lord Palmerston's plunge into war with
Russia in 1854. How many of them can
new look back upon their conduct without
shame and regret. Now their march with
Gladstone may he 30 future of equal
shame"
Mr.. Bright strongly condemns Editor
O'Bricn's mission and the refusal of the
Irish Mayors TO celebrate the Queens Ju'
bilee.
After the reading of Mr.. Brights letter
Mr.. Chamberlain addressed the meeting.
He complained that the GladstOnians wcr,
abusing the liberty of speech and popular
representation in order, with the Parnell
ties, to obstruct Parliament. This wa
treason to the Parliamentary government
and insult to the electors. II conld be
cured, not by altered procedure rules, hut
by pressure Of public Indignation against
the offenders. II the constituencies were
anxious for the reforms offered in a pro
gressive spirit by the present government

Wanted to Lynch Him.

READING, Pa, June 2,-Last night a
crowd of fifty determined men left Annival
for Lebanon to lynch VIM. Showers, the
murderer OF his two grand children, now
confined in Jail there. They were Joined
by $50 more from Lebanon and marched
through the streets for the purpose of
sturming the Jail. Some officials met
them, and, addressing them, after
much persuasion induced them to diSperSe,
promising that Showers should receive full
Justice. Showers insists that the children
were murdered by a man known rs Cow
ley Hoff'uagle, who was married to Show
err daughter, the mother Of the children,
after she had given birth to five illegiti-
mate children with as many different
fathers. HOflnagle had recently been in
this vicinity. and Showers claims Hottnagle

That ZnnasyiIIe Game.

The GAINESVILLE SiyRd attempts n very
Lame defense OF the position OF the Hanes-
Vile management in regard to the protested
game there. In regard to the afternoon
fiascO it says:
"As to Umpire McDermOtt's decision
there is no room for dispute, as the rule on
that point is plain and he bad no alterna-
tive. As to the charge that the Signal
refused to print q statement from Manager
English, a word of explanation is neces-
sary. The city editor was absent at the
time and the person in charge did not deem
il necessary to devote so much space rs
MIR Englishs affidavit would have re-
uuired. The Signal has the highest regard
for Mr.. English and his excellent base ball
clnb and would not knowingly do them an
injustice.
The old saying that assertions are very
moor arguments is well illustrated by this
etTusion. A little judicious quoting from
rbe rule referred To by our cOtempOrary
would give his statements more weight.
If the person in charge of the base ball de-
p,rtment OF the Signal did not think 1t
necessary to give Manager English sut-
Grieut space for his affidavit, il WAS Ger.
tainly in very poor taste tO pcomise him
ample room to place his side of the case
before the public.
The SiqHal's reasoning would be more
convincing ii there was little more logic
diSplayed and less OF bare assertions.

Speech Against Gladstone.

LONDON, June 2.-Prince Albert Victor,
eldest son of the Prince Of Wales, will go
to Dublin on June nth, as the Queen =
representative at the jubilee celebration
there.
Mr.. Chamberlain, responding TO an ad-
dress presented 10 him by the Liberal
Unionists Of Manchester to-day. warned
the working classes against the falsenezs
of Mr.. GladstOne's statement that Home
Rule was an issue between the ciasses and
the masses. II was not the classes that
would suffer the most on the success Of Mr..
Gladstone's policy. Such success would
destroy the country and ruin the working
classes. He believed majority Of the
people were now 80 well aware Of the dan
gers menaciDg them that the next general
election would result in Overwhelming
disaster 10 the Gladstone partisIns.
